Tyra Banks’ two-year-old son can already speak three languages – Spanish, Norwegian and English. The 44-year-old model and television personality’s son York – who she has with her partner Erik Asla – may only be a few years old but he already knows Spanish, Norwegian and English.

She said: “My son is amazing with his colours. He has friends in his classes that are like ‘re-re-red’ and my son is already up to silver and rose and rose gold. And he has been counting to 20 since he was 18 months. So he’s really, really smart. He speaks Spanish, Norwegian and English. He’s a smart one – but he’s still crazy and damn near rolling on the floor and not listening to me most of the time!”

And Tyra is glad that her job at ‘America’s Got Talent’ fits in well with motherhood as she might finish late at night but she starts late too. Speaking to reporters at the America’s Got Talent launch in Los Angeles, she added: “At first, I was like ‘These hours are crazy.’ I get home at midnight. But I don’t have to get here until 1pm so that allows me to have an entire morning with my son, whereas if it was an early morning call and I was getting home at 8pm, I wouldn’t have any time with him because I’d be here when he’s getting up and I’d be home when he was asleep. So at first I was complaining and now I’m like, ‘Hmm, Mr. [Simon] Cowell … Maybe I can learn some of this with my ‘America’s Next Top Mode’ scheduling.”
